you could put sirens and strobes on him so that when someone breaks in he can chase them around with lights and sirens going saying I have called the police please leave.................
nice job. I don't think that they will ever totally mimic the human body in a mechanical format, way too hard as you said the the eye hand thing.
Eye hand co-ordination can't be all that important, I've survived 66 yrs. without any.

Thanks. I'll put a video together over the weekend.

2 pounds each should do it...
2 pounds each is no problem, however the health department won't allow me to "send" it, so everyone must show up in person to get their sample! Now if I can only find time to get home to cook, much less find suitable meats.
The funny thing about robotics and people's perception of robotics is that the two have never really been aligned at all.
Everyone wants a Robot that does the washing, cooks dinner and chops wood, and for the past seventy years Hollywood has been promising just that.
What we get instead is a computerised washing machine, factory produced "ready meals" and processed compressed wood logs.
These things are what real world robotics R and D has come up with. Purpose built single function machines rather than a multipurpose human replacement,
Just as well too, if you think about how ruthlessly business throws away people when a new more efficient machine is invented, imagine what would happen if a true "Hollywood" robot became available. Who would need us?
So please leave Leaf arm and legless
Best Regards
